@Amandaw2 do the lights on the hub change when you lose connection? If they do there is probably a line problem that needs checking out which msybe possible by using the service checker in the My Sky app or by calling Sky.

 

However it couldcsimply becpoor wifi coverage in your home. Streaming video requires a good stable signal so will show up poor wifi. Poor WiFi coverage is probably the most common question we get in the forum. In many homes a single Sky hub cannot provide a usable wifi signal in every room due to the layout and type of construction of the property especially in older homes. Assuming the hub is in the best possible position which is out in the open on a surfsce then the only answer is additional wifi sources. 

Your choice.is to either buy Sky's add-on WiFi Max bundle which can supply up to 3 extenders see https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-wifi-max or buy your own wifi system and use that instead of the Sky hub's WiFi.
